Is this a genuine Nikon battery, or just a Nikon compatible battery?

Its genuine. Atleast the one I received. My doesnt hold a charge anymore. After 1 year of heavy use within my possession

The first one I got was from some retailer and was a knock off. Returned it, got the one actually sold by Amazon and it was the real deal.

It appears to be a Genuine Nikon EN-EL3e battery. on the other side there will be a hologram and the Nikon name on a sticker. I bought a battery once that wasn't genuine and didn't notice it for a while but so far not problems. It's about 3.5 years old now and some of my other Nikon batteries are 4 and 5 years old.

The battery I received was indeed a genuine Nikon battery and was identical to my original battery in every way. I bought it as a back-up, and it functions perfectly well.

If you look at the picture of the back you can see that it is not Genuine. It is possible that some people are getting a genuine battery but that is just a sticker. If you want to see what real one looks like go to B&H.;

The battery sold by Amazon.com is genuine, same good quality as the original one with the camera body.Not sure about the other ones sold by other vendors though...

It is a genuine Nikon battery. I find it to have excellent longevity. Highly recommended.

Bought couple of years back, appears to be genuine and functions perfectly ............ no different that the battery that came with the camera.

It came with a Nikon battery, and an aftermarket battery. Both work just fine. These are questions you should be submitting to the seller, not the buyers. The buyers dont put stuff in the bundle. Always best to go to the source.

I have used my replacement EN-EL14 extra-capacity battery on my D5100 for a year and a half with no problems. The stock Nikon charger that came with the D5100 continues to charge both the original and the extra-capacity batteries properly. While I cannot speak for everyone, the extra-capacity replacement still works as good as new and outlasts the original battery and the stock D5100 charger has no issue charging either battery. I've charged both batteries at least 10 times.

I bought this battery from Amazon in January 2013 and it worked well for several months. It appeared to be genuine Nikon, but I wonder about that since about a month ago the battery case swelled in thickness and I almost could not remove it for the camera (P-510). Of course now it is beyond the Amazon return period, so I'll just have to buy a new one. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem with this battery?

This is what is written on the battery: Nikon Lithium Ion Battery Pack EN-EL19 3.7V 700mAh 2.6 Wh. . All I can tell you from my knowledge is that it is a rechargeable battery with a good to great lifespan. If you want more detailed answer contact Nikon customer service.

There's no real way to tell, and they don't have a set life span. After some time they will simply hold less and less of a charge, and they will need to be recharged more quickly and frequently. This is why I recommend the Nikon branded battery - the unbranded batteries I've owned all suffer from this problem very quickly.

It is an OEM, but the charger is not included.......just the battery. You can get the charger separately. Check the Nikon USA web site.

It is identical to the battery that came with my camera. It charges quickly and holds the charge well. No problems at all.

I don't know all I know is that the battery does not last as long as the Nikon Original battery

These have been working fine for me. They have lasted as long as a true Nikon battery.

Yes, this is a Nikon battery. There are less expensive "non-Nikon" ones out there that are very high rated, but I paid extra just to get the Nikon brand. The one con that kept coming up with the other brands was that the battery didn't stay charged as long. People were saying that if you fully charged the other brands and just let the batter set there outside the camera, it would loose most of it's charge in a day or two.

It appears to be and was in a Nikon bag but suppose it could be counterfeit. It fits well and works good and I am happy with it.

Yes - the batteries fit perfectly. Re the length of charge, this depends of usage of course but I can tell you that the replacements are non-distinguishable from the Nikon battery that came with the camera.

Yes, it is. The knock offs don't have the name Nikon written on the battery. I only buy the real Nikon batteries for my Nikon camera.

Yes it is... Works just as well as the original cannon battery that came with the camera... At least for me.

The grip recognizes the 3rd party battery that I have. It's a great grip - solid, nice feel. My Nikonian brother says that it looks and feels like the Nikon brand grips that he has owned (this is my first Digital Nikon so I will take his word for it.)
